Abstract
Material powder 17 is filled in a cavity 16 which is composed of a die 12 having a die hole 11 in a shape matching the contour of a green compact and a lower punch 13. The material powder 17 is temporarily compressed by an upper punch 14 and the lower punch 13 to obtain a preform 18. A punch-out pin 15a is inserted into the preform 18 to punch out a shape of a through-hole 3. The preform 18 is pressurized and compressed by both of the upper and lower punches 14, 13 to obtain a green compact 19. The punch-out pin 15a is pulled out from the green compact 19 and the green compact 19 is taken out from the cavity 16. Further, the green compact 19 is sintered and a pair of leg parts 24 connected continuously at a base part 23 and an undercut part 25 between the leg parts 24 are formed by cutting off a part of a peripheral wall 26 of a through-hole 25a. The punched-out material powder 17 is retracted to and stored in the outside of the cavity 16 and refilled into the through-hole 3 after the punch-out pin 15a is pulled out. The material powder 17 is removed after the green compact 19 is taken out.
